Benzaldehyde readily undergoes autoxidation to form benzoic acid on exposure to air at room temperature. Yet it can be formed in high yield from, for example, benzyl alcohol by oxidation using a ...

Figure 1: Oxygenase versus oxidase aerobic oxidation chemistry. Figure 2: Radical-chain mechanism for aldehyde autoxidation. Figure 3: Aerobic oxidation of PhI provides a broad platform to directly ...

The Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) aldehyde oxidases are a multigene family of four oxidases (AAO1–AAO4) that oxidize a variety of aldehydes, among them abscisic aldehyde, which is oxidized to the ...

Associate Professor Muhammet Uyanik (L), Professor Kazuaki Ishihara (R), and graduate student Ryutaro Kondo have improved their iodine-based catalyst system to work efficiently at lower temperatures, ...

Plant lignins and soil humic colloids were isolated using H₂SO₄, NaOH and 1,4-dioxane and their elemental composition, methoxyl contents and cation exchange capacities were determined. The isolated ...
